A Kombat Blog! Huffing! and Puffing! trying to blow the house down! Spitting in the face of these badlands! Raging against the dying of the light! Preaching to the converted? Converting the preached to? A challenge to the intellect? or Intellectually challenged? Totally Random! Creative Chaos! Is it art? music? Politics? or Yarbles!?

A lovingly packaged box set that
collects various mixes and demos from the sessions that produced The
Heartbreakers flawed but classic album, the versions found across the
4 CD's show what could have been. There's also a booklet that tells
the story of the recording of LAMF and four badges.

Unfortunately, especially as I was
looking forward to both of them, but THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM's
Handwritten, and THE ENEMY's Streets In The Sky didn't do it for me,
and left me feeling slightly disappointed.

Right then, that was the music, but
it's not just about the music, what else has been going on over these
last twelve months? Time to reflect. Pretty much the same shit that always goes down
every year. Scandals, exposes, enquires, truth, lies, death and
destruction.

The 'issues' of gay marriage and female
bishops showed how broad-minded both the church of England and the
Roman Catholic church have become with the passing of time.

Free speech for the dumb. Enquires
into press standards and the behaviour of the media, raise issues
about the free press, democracy and state control over the media.

Housing benefit changes are bringing
about social cleansing with affordable housing that people can't
afford.

We are still at war in Iraq and
Afghanistan fighting their terror and fear of the Easternization of
the West.

The weather has taken a turn for the
worse with record rainfall and flooding, lets remember that when in
the summer they tell us we are living in a drought and water is being
rashioned.

Then there are plans to blow up parts
of the country in order to get to gas supplies buried underground.
The process is known as Fracking, and it involves setting off
explosions beneath the earths surface in order to release the gas.
It has caused structural damage to several places up North where they
have been extracting gas using this process, Politicians think this
is a good idea....well they can Fuck Off with their Fracking Shit!
and take their high speed London to Birmingham rail link with them.
England’s green and pleasant land is rapidly turning into a
concrete and steel mess.

The nation was brainwashed this year by
the Olympics and Jubilee celebrations and turned into a mass of red,
white and blue flag waving plebs.

The divide between the haves and have
nots got wider. Artistic accounting and legal tax avoidance schemes
explained why the haves have and the have nots haven't. We, the
workers are told how much tax we have to pay, yet corporations like
Ogle and Starfucks can choose how much they want to pay, and we are
all in it together.

Margaret Thatcher survives another
year.

Institutions like the BBC and the
Police Force start shaking when the truth is outed and the cover ups
uncovered. Justice for the Hillsborough 96! But who's gonna be
paying for their lies when claims for compensation start coming in?
We will....the tax payer. We pay for the people with the power to
maintain their power, what price freedom?

Get Angry! and stay angry with their
carry on. The reason they tell us to stay calm is because when
people are calm, they are not saying or doing anything. The passive
don't protest! Jutice 4 Everyone!

1982 was the year that The Clash's
outsider values (particularly Joe's) ideologically.... clashed with
reality. Drummer Topper Headon had a 'drug problem' and the bands
popularity had been growing across the world. By October, Topper had
been sacked, and the band were gonna be taking the sound of West
London to the stadium stages of America supporting The Who, at the
request of Pete Townsend, who was a big fan. It was a case of the
old guard meeting the new guard Once again just like when they
signed with CBS in 1977, the band were accused of 'selling out' but
once again it was about “Reaching more people” and with the Who
supports they had a ready made audience to get the message across to,
The Clash went out and “Did a job.” and fine job they did to.

The intimacy with the audience may not
have been there, but was there anywhere else for the band to go?
The previous year, 1981 The Clash had done residencies at Bonds in New York,
The Mogador in Paris and The Lyceum in London.

The criticisms and contradictions, were
pretty irrelevant because by the 1980's The Clash had broken free
from Punk Rocks constraints, but they still tried to remain true, at
the Shea Stadium gig hundreds of fans were let in to the after show
party.

Did The Clash break the USA, or did the
USA break The Clash? It was during this stadium tour that tensions
between Strummer and Jones heightened, this would ultimately mean the
end of the band when Mick Jones was sacked in 1983 for having “moved
away from the original ideals of the group.” The Clash were more
than just a band....and if they were just a band, then they were the
only band that mattered.

Since The Clash split there has only
been one other band with the same mouth and trousers attitude and
they are the Manic Street Preachers, and without The Clash there
would have been no Manic Street Preachers. Joe may no longer be with
us, but his heart still beats with every herbert that picks up a
guitar, writes some words and tries to get a message across.

This is a great quality bootleg (with
artwork) recorded through the soundboard that I liberated/leached from somewhere/someone who/where I
can't remember, respect to whoever and wherever you are, and to
everyone else ENJOY!

A welcome return for Bikini Red, the
second album by one of Britain's most underrated bands ever The
Screaming Blue Messiahs. Why their albums haven't been re-packaged
and re-released with bonus tracks by some record company is beyond
me. If you didn't grab this first time around, here's another
chance, if you've not heard The Screaming Blue Messiahs, now's yer
chance. What can I say about the Messiahs that I've said before; "Pedal
to the metal, full throttle, high octane rock’n’roll, the drive
of yer life / Pure, ferocious, frantic and fun, with a dark edge /
A mutant Rock’n’Roll hybrid of Punk, Rhythm and Blues and
Rockabilly. Howling and hollered vocals, guitars chopping and
slashing with destructive abandon over the thumping, threading bass
and machine gun attack drums / 20+ years later they still sounds
fresh as the smell of recently burned rubber on tarmac //!"

Well the world didn't end today, now
there's a surprise I tell you what though, it should have ended for
those gun toting fuck wits from the NRA; up against the wall with the
lot of 'em, those that live by the gun will die by the gun! I mean
their solution to gun control is to have more guns, with armed
security guards in every school across the U.S.A. What the Fuck!!!
The NRA are putting the blame on violent video games and films, but
are too thick to make the connection, between them and having easy
access to guns giving some 'individuals with issues' the chance to
live out their Grand Theft Auto virtual reality for real!

N.B

Governments across the world profit
from the arms trade. Capitalism Kills!

Today’s music is a second coming for
those leather clad rock'n'roll renegades The Lords Of The New Church,
made up from former members of The Dead Boys, The Damned, Sham 69 and
The Barracudas, they truly were a 'punk super group' I saw The Lords
many a time through out their career, always a good night out, Stiv
Bator’s probably one of the best front man of a Rock'n'Roll band,
second only to Iggy; microphone cable wrapped round his neck,
rolling round the floor, prowling the stage, while Brian James riffed
out over Dave Tregunna's throbbing bass and the solid pounding of
Nicky Turners Drums. Maan! These guys were one sexy sleazy
Rock'n'Roll beast, as a listen to any of their three albums will
testify. The death of Stiv Bator in 1990 was the case of a life cut
short too soon, hit by a car in Paris, he got up went home, went to
bed and died in his sleep.

By the time of this recording at the
Reading Festival in 1986 the band had reached their peak, but were
nowhere near past their sell by date. Dave Tregunna had briefly left
the band, to be replaced by Grant Flemming, who is charmingly
introduced to the Reading audience by Stiv. The bands set is a nice
selection of the old and the new, the quality of the recording aint
half bad, considering the sound at the Reading Festival was notorious
for floating off with the wind at times. Enjoy! And remember TRUTH
IS THE SWORD OF US ALL!

As a footnote it's worth mentioning
that there's a new collection of recordings available from Easy
Action Records. The Gospel Truth is a 3 CD/DVD set that includes
rare re-mastered studio recordings from 1987-88, and two live shows
one from 1982 at The Agora, and another in 1988 in Lyon. If that
wasn't enough there's a live DVD from Vienna in 1988. All this comes
at the unholy price of £19.99, a bargain for all believers and
worshippers of the New Church.

I may not be an American, or live in
the land of the free, but as a global citizen, I can't help but pass
comment, about yesterdays slaughter of twenty school children by
another gun toting crazie. Surely it is time for the NRA (National
Rifle Association) and those Americans who believe in the second
amendment and right to bear arms to take some sort of collective
responsibility for the actions of those who have abused this right,
by taking the lives of the innocent.

I'm not gonna list all the massacres
that have happened across the united states over the years, and yes
for every maniac, there are probably a hundred responsible gun
owners....but I do wonder Just how much freedom can be endured? and
is it found down the barrel of a gun?

This post was originally gonna be a
where are they now/what are they up to now sort of thang about THE
PADDINGTONS, but instead has turned into something different. Here
we go from how the original post was going to start.

Whatever became of these Rock'n'Roll
reprobates? They seem to have disappeared since their last album No
Mundane Option in 2008. The Paddingtons were no mundane option, with
pockets full of power pop punk rock. So what's been going on?
Well....their twitter feed hadn't been updated, as far as I can see
since Dec 2011, the last tweet said to check out Josh's (The
Paddingtons guitarist) new side projects SKATERS. In the original post, I was then gonna talk
about the last I'd heard of The Paddingtons, which was about their plans
for a live EP, which I didn't hear anymore about, I was then gonna
enquire whether there were any recordings available of The
Paddingtons preforming with Hugh Cornwall from The Stranglers at some
Jack Daniels (I think) sponsored event a few years ago. That was as
far as I got before I skated off elsewhere.

I clicked the link and was taken to a
web page with scant info about Skaters, but there was a free download
of their 5 Track Schemers EP available, which I checked out, and
well....Slightly disappointed I must say, will say and now have said.
It just sounds a bit dated, a sort of lo-fi post punk, spiky and
scruffy Strokes sounding rock'n'roll racket with a splash of arty dub
grooves to some of the tracks. But hey....just cos it's not my bag,
that doesn't mean it might not be yours....Check Skaters out here!Click, Download, Extract File, Play, then either Save or Delete!
depending on what you think of what you hear, sounds like a fair
deal, no robbery and all that. ENJOY? DESTROY?

Train journeys are slow and service is
poor, but fare increases are moving quickly along. They've risen
higher than the cost of inflation, and gone up 26% since the start of
the recession. Capitalism doesn't just kill, it's a kon! You pay
more and get less! Quantity and quality....The companies/businesses
want the most and the only way they get that is to give us less.
Don't let Richard Branson tell you it isn't true. The friendly face
of capitalism is just as ugly! and the view from the window is just
the same!!

A not so random music post for yer, because like the one the other day, this one is also recorded at The
West Side Club in Lyon, France, in Dec 1984, this time it's from
regular favourites of mine The Vibrators, whose live recordings seem
to be a bit scarce; this one originally appeared on the mighty Noise
Addiction II blogspot, but I think was lost in the mediafire cull, so
I'm reposting it here, with much respect to the original uplloader
bat29. For this gig The 'brators borrowed Tony Oliver from The
Inmates, as Jon Ellis couldn't make the gig. The songs are taken
from their first couple of albums with a splattering of tunes from
their 1982 comeback album Guilty, and its follow up Alaska 127, plus
a cover of Chuck Berry’s I'm Talking About You. A great recording
of a slightly shambolic, in places performance of a band who were
born to Rock'n'Roll!

Over the last 30 years more of the
National Income has been going to 'the financial services' than to
the workers. In the 1980's Tory Uber Komandant Norman Tebbit told
the unemployed to “Get on your bike” and look for work. Now
under a new Government initiative job seekers are being encouraged to
“ Get on the bus” by being given free travel.

The great smog in London may well have
cleared 60 years ago, but there might be a new cloud of smoke
appearing soon, with talk of setting up a Royal Commission into
drugs. (another one?) I should imagine Legalisation of Cannabis is
gonna be....high....on the agenda, especially when the powers that we
let be see how much money could be made in tax if there was some sort
of state control of the sale/distribution of drugs, especially when
that figure is balanced against the cost of prohibition and the
criminalisation of users.

What about the Prank call from those
two Australian DJ's to the hospital were the Duchess of where-ever
was staying with complications to her pregnancy. I've just realised
that I didn't do a congratunational post at the good news that
there's another royal mouth for us to feed. Back to the prank call
the hapless DJ's made; where they pretended to be The Queen and
Prince Philip, and were given confidential information by a nurse. A
couple of days later, the nurse who answered the call committed
suicide, ooops! A butterfly flaps its wings and all that. So now not
content with judging our own media, we are scrutinising an Australian
Radio stations behaviour, in a situation no-one could have predicted
would happen. It's interesting that Prince Charles joked about the
call the day after it happened, and the palace made no formal
complaint, so I was left wondering why someone would kill themselves
over a mistake they made at work, unless they were so afraid that
they would lose their job over it. Perhaps we should be looking if
there is a 'culture of fear' in the NHS, that drove the nurse to
kill herself, especially as the palace had made no formal complaint
over the incident. Her husband has said that it was the “shame”
that drove his wife to suicide he might have a point there, because
they weren't very good impersonations!

But lets not get distracted from the
bigger picture, like just how involved is Britain getting in the
conflicts happening in the Middle East and the increased tensions
closer to home in Northern Ireland, and what will Santa Satan bring you for
Christmas!

The 60's may have been Dead in
yesterdays musical post, but today they are certainly alive and
kicking, with The Barracudas and their 60's inspired/influenced Power
Pop Garage Punk.

This was recorded in early 1983, the surf boards had been left in the garage, and the bands line up had now been bolstered by the addition of former
Flamin' Groovies guitarist Chris Wilson. The 'Cudas are on fine form
in front of a lively audience and deliver a righteous and riotous
rock'n'roll racket with more energy and enthusiasm than you could
shake a twelve string Rickenbacker guitar at. This is one of those
recordings that captures the wild and dangerous essence of a
Rock'n'Roll show. Check it out here!

13 Sleeps till the end of the world!
That's if you believe the predictions of the ancient Mayan
civilisations calendar, which it is claimed says the lights go out
across the globe on Dec 21st 2012, well probably not in
those exact words but you know what I mean.... or do you....Because
the prediction of the end of the world is only someone else’s
interpretation of another persons writings. No scientific evidence,
unless there's something we haven't been told about, mind you science
isn't the answer to everything, sometimes shit just happens.

Other days of reckoning have been and
gone and we're still here.

But what if on 21st Dec 2012
a meteorite or a massive lump of space debris hits the earth, knock
it off its axis, flooding half the world and setting the other half
on fire? Or perhaps a freezing cold wind is going to blow in from
the East, wait up.... yeah they've told us about the cold wind...or
'The Beast From The East' as the media are calling it.

I'm pretty sure that come 22nd
Dec 2012, we are all still gonna be here, some people may have joined
some crazy end of the world cult and committed mass suicide, but do
people really care anyway? To some it might be a blessing....putting
them out of their misery. Some peoples worlds have already ended in
economic and emotional bankruptcy, some less fortunate ones haven't
seen a world, other than the one they've had created for them, that
has left them chasing dreams and living in hope of a better world.

Start again, A new world with order,
not a new world order! Time to get organised! Not much time left!

The Dead 60's were from Liverpool.
Their self titled debut album was released in 2005 along with a
succession of killah singles. In 2007 the band relocated to New York
to record that 'difficult second album'

They'd come to bury the 90's Brit-Pop
era with their brand of high octane incendiary ska punk, inspired
by the likes of seventies reggae legend King Tubby, The Clash and the
Gang Of 4. If there was a natural successor to The Ruts, then The
Dead 60's were that band. Unfortunately despite major support slots
with the likes of Garbage, Social Distortion, Morissey, Kasabian and
travelling across the US as part of the Vans Warped Tour, where the
band became a big hit on Alternative Radio with their 2004 single
Riot Radio. Major success eluded the band, they never received the
commercial/critical acclaim of bands like The Enemy or Hard-Fi, which
is a real shame and they announced their split in 2008, leaving
behind one album, a string of stomping and skanking singles, and this
their unreleased second album Time To Take Sides, a collection of
songs from the streets, tales of urban angst, anguish and anger.
Five years after its non-release Time To Take Sides still sounds
relevant today, because socially nothing has really changed in
Britain, if anything its got worse. The working week is still boring
and the weekend too short. Kids are still growing up in dull towns,
in a country run by liars, that is still at war in the desert sun,
and it's still time to take sides and stand up! ENJOY!!

All this talk, mine included about a
free press, free speech and democracy has got me thinking....could be
dangerous.

Does having a free press really make us
free? Who wants to read about pointless celebrity’s that court the
media then criticism them in the same breath.

“Is it in the interest of the public,
or is it of interest to the public” Is something I've heard spoken
over the last year during the phone hacking scandal which is at the
heart of the Leveson report into press standards.

Who cares if some 2 bit celebrity has a
new hair cut, or their nose fell off because they snorted too much
coke while shagging half the Manchester United football team. If
this sort of shit is regulated by the state, would it be a bad thing
for our society? I don't think it would.

The years and years of having celebrity
shoved in their faces has blinded people to what's really going on,
and turned them into a dumbed down mass of self obsessed individuals,
praying at the alter of celebrity consumption.

The media publishes propaganda for
industries like fashion and music, publicity for products aimed at
promoting life style choices.

People have become slaves to a machine
they help to fuel, by buying and believing the papers.

If people didn't consume it then they
wouldn't print it, but they do, so the media machine feeds the hunger
for not just the trivial and titillating, but also the vicious and
vicarious.

Then there are the stories we've had
over the last couple years like MPs expenses scandal, that have gone
some way to telling the truth about how people in power abuse their
power.

The people in power don't want to be
exposed by the media, so any post Leveson recommendations will be
used by the politicians for their own ends. i.e. protecting their own
interests.

Both the Liberal and Labour parties are
in favour of the 'Statutory underpinning' of any legislation based on
the results of the Leveson report, or in other terms state control!
On lines petitions have been set up and the 'famous faces' have come
out to to support what is basically state control of the media.

What about the new social twitterface
mediums, how will these be effected by Levesens findings.

The media have created this generation
of mindless voyeurs whose politics are also shaped by the paper they
read, with their often bigoted views; It's all the fault of the
'illegal immigrants' 'benefit scroungers' etc, etc. Will this sort
of reporting become regulated? I doubt it, and neither should it,
not if we still want to live in a democracy where the people have the
freedom to choose what they think. But like I said; “Too much
thinking could be dangerous”, but too little thinking could be even
worse, but not as fatal as believing everything we are told!

In the beginning is the scream. We scream.

The Wall

"There was a wall. It did not look important. It was built of uncut rocks roughly mortared; an adult could look right over it, and even a child could climb it. Where it crossed the roadway, instead of having a gate it degenerated into mere geometry, a line, an idea of boundary. But the idea was real.........Like all walls it was ambiguous, two-faced. What was inside it and what was outside it depended upon which side of it you were on." -Ursula Le Guin (In The Dispossessed)

‘Excuse me,’ they cry, ‘you can’t fight it; twice two is four! Nature doesn’t ask you about it; she’s not concerned with your wishes or with whether you like her laws or not. You must take her as she is, and consequently all her results as well. I mean to say, a wall is a wall, etc. But good God! What have the laws of nature and arithmetic to do with me, when for some reason I don’t like those laws or twice two? Naturally I shan’t break through the wall with my head, if I’m really not strong enough, but I wont be reconciled to it simply because it’s a stone wall and I haven’t enough strength to break it down. - Fyodor Dostoyevsky (In Notes From Underground)

Revolution is alive'n'kicking in 2007 Britain, courtesy of 'crackpot Cornish extremists' AKA The Cornish National Liberation Army who are taking their fight to the owners of second homes who come from out of the county. Dunno 'bout that gun though, only damage it looks like it could do is to themselves.

'I myself believe, perhaps on insufficient grounds, that the common man will win his fight sooner or later, but I want it to be sooner and not later - some time within the next hundred years, say and not some time within the nest ten thousand years.' - George Orwell (Homage to Catalonia,1938)

The powers that have for centuries been engaged in enslaving the masses have made a thorough study of their psychology. They know that the people at large are like children whose despair, sorrow and tears can be turned into joy with a little toy. And the more gorgeously the toy is dressed, the louder the colors, the more it will appeal to the million-headed child. - Emma Goldman (Anarchism and Other Essays)

'It was not desirable that the proles should have strong political feelings. All that was required of them was a primitive patriotism which could be appealed to whenever it was necessary to make them accept longer working-hours or shorter rations. And even when they became discontented, as they sometimes did, their discontent led nowhere, because without general ideas, they could only focus it on petty specific grievances.' - George Orwell (1984)

'Like Anthony, she wished at times that she had not been presented with this sudden freedom of choice. It had felt safer, when they had been blinkered by sickening anxiety, walking the narrow path, unable to risk a glance to right or left. Now, they stood in a flat and featureless plain, older, wiser but somehow diminished.' - Margaret Drabble (Ice Age)

'The formula works. He stumbled on the first and last truth about the leisure society, and perhaps all societies. Crime and creativity go together, and always have done. The greater the sense of crime, the greater civic awareness and richer the civilisation. Nothing else binds a community together. It's a strange paradox.' - J.G Ballard (in Cocaine Nights)

The proletarian dictatorship...has today grown into a frightful despotism and a new imperialism, which lags behind the tyranny of Fascist states in nothing. - Rudolf Rocker(1973)
